 LOAN AGREEMENT dated as of June 7, 2016 among COCA-COLA BOTTLING CO.
CONSOLIDATED, a corporation organized under the laws of Delaware (the “Borrower”), the Lenders from time to time party hereto, PNC BANK, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION, a national banking association, and BRANCH BANKING AND TRUST COMPANY, as co-syndication agents, and JPMORGAN CHASE BANK, N.A., a national banking association, as administrative agent (in such capacity, the “Administrative Agent”). 

WHEREAS, the Borrower has requested that the initial Lenders provide a term loan facility for the purposes set forth herein,
and such Lenders are willing to do so on the terms and conditions set forth herein; 
 NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of
the premises and the mutual covenants contained herein, the parties hereto agree as follows: 
 ARTICLE 1 

DEFINITIONS AND ACCOUNTING TERMS 

SECTION 1.01.      Certain Defined Terms. As used in this Agreement, the following terms
shall have the following meanings (such meanings to be equally applicable to both the singular and plural forms of the terms defined): 

“Acquisition Cash Flow” means, with respect to any Person or assets, franchises or businesses
acquired by the Borrower or any of its Consolidated Subsidiaries, operating income for any period of determination plus any amounts deducted for depreciation, amortization and operating lease expense in determining operating income during such
period (to the extent not included in Consolidated Operating Income for such period), all determined using historical financial statements of such Person, assets, franchises or businesses acquired with appropriate adjustments thereto in order to
reflect such operating income, depreciation, amortization and operating lease expense on an actual historical combined pro forma basis as if such Person, assets, franchises or businesses acquired had been owned by the Borrower or one of its
Consolidated Subsidiaries during the applicable period. Operating income as used in the preceding sentence will be determined for the acquired Person, assets, franchises or businesses using the same method prescribed for determining Consolidated
Operating Income. 
 “Adjusted LIBO Rate” means, with respect to any Eurodollar Rate
Advance for any Interest Period, an interest rate per annum (rounded upwards, if necessary, to the next 1/16 of 1%) equal to (a) the LIBO Rate for such Interest Period multiplied by (b) the Statutory Reserve Rate. 

“Administrative Agent” has the meaning set forth in the introduction hereto. 

“Advance” means an advance by a Lender and refers to a Base Rate Advance or a Eurodollar Rate
Advance (each of which shall be a “Type” of Advance). 
 “Affiliate”
means, as to any Person, any other Person (other than a Subsidiary) which, directly or indirectly, is in control of, is controlled by, or is under common control with, such Person. For purposes of this definition, “control” of a Person
means the power, directly or indirectly, either to (a) vote 10% or more of the securities having ordinary voting power for the election of directors or other persons performing similar functions of such Person or (b) direct or cause the
direction of the management and policies of such Person, whether by contract or otherwise. 







 “Agreement” means this Loan Agreement, as the
same may be amended, amended and restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time. 

“Anti-Corruption Laws” means all laws, rules, and regulations of any jurisdiction applicable
to the Borrower or any of its Affiliates from time to time concerning or relating to bribery or corruption. 

“Applicable Lending Office” means, with respect to any Lender, such Lender’s Domestic
Lending Office in the case of a Base Rate Advance and such Lender’s Eurodollar Lending Office in the case of a Eurodollar Rate Advance. 

“Applicable Rate” means, for any day, with respect to any Base Rate Advance or Eurodollar
Rate Advance, as the case may be, the applicable rate per annum set forth below under the caption “Base Rate Spread” or “Eurodollar Spread”, as the case may be, based upon the Ratings by Moody’s, S&P and Fitch,
respectively, applicable on such date:

	  	 0.25% 

	 	 	
5
	  	
BB+/Ba1/BB+
 or lower
	  	1.50%	  	0.50%

 For purposes of the foregoing: 

If the Borrower shall maintain a Rating from only two of Moody’s, S&P and Fitch and there is a one-notch split between the two Ratings, then the Level corresponding to the higher Rating shall apply, but if there is a more than one notch split in the two Ratings, then the Rating that is one notch higher than
the lowest Rating shall apply. If the Borrower shall maintain a Rating from all three of Moody’s, S&P and Fitch and there is a difference in such Ratings, (i) if there is a one-notch split
between the Ratings, then the Level corresponding to the higher Rating shall apply and (ii) if there is greater than a one-notch split between the Ratings, then the Level shall be based upon one Level
higher than the Level corresponding to the lowest of the three Ratings shall apply. If any of Moody’s, S&P or Fitch shall not have in effect a Rating for the long-term senior unsecured
non-credit-enhanced debt obligations of the Borrower then outstanding (other than by reason of the circumstances referred to in the last sentence of this paragraph), then, to the extent such rating agency is
being used to determine the Level (it being understood and agreed that at least two rating agencies will be used to determine the Level at all times), such rating agency shall be deemed to have established a Rating in Level 5. If the Ratings
established or deemed to have been established by Moody’s, S&P and Fitch shall be changed (other than as a result of a change in the rating system of Moody’s, S&P or Fitch), such change shall be effective as of the date on which it
is first announced by the applicable rating agency, irrespective of when notice of such change shall have been furnished by the Borrower to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders pursuant to 

  
 2 








 
Section 5.01(c) or otherwise. Each change in the Applicable Rate shall apply during the period commencing on the effective date of such change and ending on the date immediately preceding
the effective date of the next such change. If the rating system of Moody’s, S&P or Fitch shall change, or if any such rating agency shall cease to be in the business of rating corporate debt obligations, the Borrower and the Lenders shall
negotiate in good faith to amend the definition of Applicable Rate to reflect such changed rating system or the unavailability of Ratings from such rating agency and, pending the effectiveness of any such amendment, the Applicable Rate shall be
determined by reference to the Rating most recently in effect prior to such change or cessation. 

“Arrangers” means JPMorgan, PNC Capital Markets LLC and Branch Banking and Trust Company, as
Joint Lead Arrangers, and JPMorgan and PNC Capital Markets LLC, as Joint Bookrunners. 
 “Assignment
and Acceptance” means an assignment and acceptance entered into by a Lender and an Eligible Assignee, and accepted by the Administrative Agent, in substantially the form of Exhibit B hereto. 

“Bail-In Action” means the exercise of any Write-Down
and Conversion Powers by the applicable EEA Resolution Authority in respect of any liability of an EEA Financial Institution. 

“Bail-In Legislation” means, with respect to any EEA
Member Country implementing Article 55 of Directive 2014/59/EU of the European Parliament and of the Council of the European Union, the implementing law for such EEA Member Country from time to time which is described in the EU Bail-In Legislation Schedule. 
 “Bankruptcy Event”
means, with respect to any Person, such Person becomes the subject of a voluntary or involuntary bankruptcy or insolvency proceeding, or has had a receiver, conservator, trustee, administrator, custodian, assignee for the benefit of creditors or
similar Person charged with the reorganization or liquidation of its business appointed for it, or, in the good faith determination of the Administrative Agent, has taken any action in furtherance of, or indicating its consent to, approval of, or
acquiescence in, any such proceeding or appointment or has had any order for relief in such proceeding entered in respect thereof, provided that a Bankruptcy Event shall not result solely by virtue of any ownership interest, or the
acquisition of any ownership interest, in such Person by a Governmental Authority or instrumentality thereof, unless such ownership interest results in or provides such Person with immunity from the jurisdiction of courts within the United States or
from the enforcement of judgments or writs of attachment on its assets or permits such Person (or such Governmental Authority or instrumentality) to reject, repudiate, disavow or disaffirm any contracts or agreements made by such Person. 

“Base Rate” means, for any day, a rate per annum equal to the greatest of (a) the
Prime Rate in effect on such day, (b) the NYFRB Rate in effect on such day plus  1⁄2 of 1% and (c) the Adjusted LIBO Rate for a one month Interest
Period in Dollars on such day (or if such day is not a Business Day, the immediately preceding Business Day) plus 1%, provided that for the purpose of this definition, the Adjusted LIBO Rate for any day shall be based on the LIBO Screen Rate
(or if the LIBO Screen Rate is not available for such one month Interest Period, the Interpolated Rate) at approximately 11:00 a.m. London time on such day. Any change in the Base Rate due to a change in the Prime Rate, the NYFRB Rate or the
Adjusted LIBO Rate shall be effective from and including the effective date of such change in the Prime Rate, the NYFRB Rate or the Adjusted LIBO Rate, respectively. If the Base Rate is being used as an alternate rate of interest pursuant to
Section 2.09 hereof, then the Base Rate shall be the greater of clauses (a) and (b) above and shall be determined without reference to clause (c) above. For the avoidance of doubt, if the Base Rate


  
 3 








 
as so determined would be less than zero, such rate shall be deemed to be zero for purposes of this Agreement. 

“Base Rate Advance” means, at any time, an Advance which bears interest at rates based upon
the Base Rate. 
 “Beneficial Ownership Certification” means a certification regarding
beneficial ownership as required by the Beneficial Ownership Regulation. 
 “Beneficial Ownership
Regulation” means 31 C.F.R. § 1010.230. 
 “Benefit Plan” means any of

(c) any Person whose assets include (for purposes of the Plan Asset Regulations or otherwise for purposes of Title I of ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code) the assets of any such “employee benefit plan” or “plan”. 

“Borrower” has the meaning set forth in the introduction hereto.

each of the Lenders pursuant to Section 2.01(a).

SECTION 2.01.      The Advances. 

(a)      Each Lender severally (and not jointly) agrees, on and subject to the terms and
conditions hereinafter set forth, to make an advance to the Borrower (each, an “Advance”) on the Closing Date in the amount set forth under the heading “Commitment” opposite such Lender’s name on
Schedule I. Each Borrowing and each Conversion or Continuation thereof (i) shall be in an aggregate amount not less than $1,000,000 or an integral multiple of $500,000 in excess thereof and (ii) shall consist of
Advances of the same Type (and, if such Advances are Eurodollar Rate Advances, having the same Interest Period) made, Continued or Converted on the same day by the Lenders ratably according to their respective Commitments, except in each case as
otherwise provided in Sections 2.09(f) and (g), as applicable. Amounts borrowed under this Section 2.01(a) and then repaid or prepaid may not be reborrowed. 

SECTION 2.02.      Making the Advances. 

(a)      (i) Each Borrowing shall be made on notice, given not later than 12:00 noon (New York
City time) on the third Business Day prior to the date of such Borrowing (in the case of a Borrowing consisting of Eurodollar Rate Advances) or given not later than 12:00 noon (New York City time) on the Business Day of such Borrowing (in the case
of a Borrowing consisting of Base Rate Advances), by the Borrower to the Administrative Agent, which shall give to each Lender prompt notice thereof. 

(ii)      Each such notice of a Borrowing (a “Notice of
Borrowing”) shall be in writing in substantially the form of Exhibit A hereto, specifying therein the requested (i) date of such Borrowing, (ii) Type of Advances comprising such Borrowing,
(iii) amount of such Borrowing, and (iv) in the case of a Borrowing consisting of Eurodollar Rate Advances, initial Interest Period for each such Advance. 

(iii)      Each Lender shall, before 1:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the
date of such Borrowing, make available for the account of its Applicable Lending Office to the Administrative Agent at its address referred to in Section 8.02, in same day funds, such Lender’s ratable portion of such Borrowing. 

(iv)      Upon the Administrative Agent’s receipt of such funds and upon
fulfillment of the applicable conditions set forth in Article 3, the Administrative Agent will make such funds available to the Borrower at the Administrative Agent’s aforesaid address. 

(b)      Each Notice of Borrowing shall be irrevocable and binding on the Borrower. In the case
of any Borrowing which the related Notice of Borrowing specifies is to be comprised of Eurodollar Rate Advances, the Borrower shall indemnify each Lender against any loss, cost or expense (excluding loss of profit) reasonably incurred by such Lender
as a result of any failure to make such Borrowing (including, without limitation, as a result of any failure to fulfill, on or before the date specified in such Notice of Borrowing, the applicable conditions set forth in Article 3) and the
liquidation or reemployment of deposits or other funds acquired by such Lender to fund the Advance to be made by such Lender as part of such Borrowing. A certificate as to the amount of such losses, costs and expenses, submitted to the Borrower


  
 17 








 
and the Administrative Agent by such Lender, shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error. 

(c)      Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from a Lender prior to the
date of any Borrowing that such Lender will not make available to the Administrative Agent such Lender’s ratable portion of such Borrowing, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender has made such portion available to the
Administrative Agent on the date of such Borrowing in accordance with subsection (a) of this Section 2.02 and the Administrative Agent may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the Borrower on such date a corresponding
amount. If and to the extent that such Lender shall not have so made such ratable portion available to the Administrative Agent, such Lender and the Borrower severally agree to repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand (but without
duplication) such corresponding amount together with interest thereon, for each day from the date such amount is made available to the Borrower until the date such amount is repaid to the Administrative Agent, at (i) in the case of the
Borrower, the interest rate applicable at the time to Advances comprising such Borrowing and (ii) in the case of such Lender, the NYFRB Rate. If such Lender shall repay to the Administrative Agent such corresponding amount, such amount so
repaid shall constitute such Lender’s Advance as part of such Borrowing for purposes of this Agreement (and such Advance shall be deemed to have been made by such Lender on the date on which such amount is so repaid to the Administrative
Agent). 
 (d)      The failure of any Lender to make the Advance to be made by it as part of
any Borrowing shall not relieve the other Lenders of their obligations hereunder to make an Advance on the date of such Borrowing, and no Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to make the Advance to be made by such other
Lender on the date of any Borrowing. 
 SECTION 2.03.      [Intentionally Omitted].

 SECTION 2.04.      Administrative Agent’s Fees. The Borrower
agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent, for the Administrative Agent’s own account, an administrative agency fee at the times and in the amounts heretofore agreed between the Borrower and the Administrative Agent. 

SECTION 2.05.      Termination of the Commitments. The Commitments shall be
automatically terminated upon the funding of the Advances on the Closing Date, and once so terminated may not be reinstated. 

SECTION 2.06.      Amortization; Repayment of Advances.

previously repaid, all unpaid Advances shall be paid in full in Dollars by the Borrower on the Maturity Date. 
 SECTION
2.07.      Interest. 
 (a)      Ordinary
Interest. The Borrower shall pay interest on the unpaid principal amount of each Advance made by each Lender, from the date of such Advance until such principal amount shall be paid in full, at the following rates per annum: 

(i)      Base Rate Advances. While such Advance is a Base Rate Advance,
a rate per annum equal to the Base Rate in effect from time to time plus the Applicable Rate for Base Rate Advances as in effect from time to time, payable quarterly in arrears on the last Business Day of each March, June, September and
December and on the date such Base Rate Advance shall be Converted, on the Maturity Date and on the date of payment in full. 

(ii)      Eurodollar Rate Advances. While such Advance is a Eurodollar
Rate Advance, a rate per annum for each Interest Period for such Advance equal to the sum of the Eurodollar Rate for such Interest Period plus the Applicable Rate for Eurodollar Rate Advances as in effect from time to time, payable on the
last day of such Interest Period and, if such Interest Period has a duration of more than three months, on each day which occurs at three-month intervals after the first day of such Interest Period, and on each date on which such Eurodollar Rate
Advance shall be Continued, Converted, on the Maturity Date and on the date of payment in full. 

(b)      Default Interest. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any Payment Default shall
have occurred and be continuing, the Borrower shall pay interest on: 

(i)      the unpaid principal amount of each Advance owing to each Lender,
payable on demand (and in any event in arrears on the dates referred to in Section 2.07(a)(i) or (a)(ii) above), at a rate per annum equal at all times to 2% per annum above the rate per annum required to be paid on such Advance pursuant to
said Section 2.07(a)(i) or (a)(ii), as applicable; provided that if such Payment Default shall be continuing at the end of any Interest Period for any Eurodollar Rate Advance, such Advance shall forthwith be Converted to a Base Rate
Advance bearing interest as aforesaid in this Section 2.07(b)(i); and 

(ii)      the amount of any interest, fee or other amount payable hereunder
that is not paid when due, from the date such amount shall be due until such amount shall be paid in full, payable on demand (and in any event in arrears on the date such amount shall be paid in full), at a rate per annum equal at all times to 2%
per annum above the rate per annum required to be paid on Base Rate Advances pursuant to Section 2.07(a)(i) above. 

SECTION 2.08.      [Intentionally Omitted]. 

SECTION 2.09.      Interest Rate Determinations; Changes in Rating Systems. 

(a)      The Administrative Agent shall give prompt notice to the Borrower and the Lenders of
the applicable interest rates determined by the Administrative Agent for the purposes of Section 2.07. 

  
 19 








 (b)      If prior to the commencement of any
Interest Period for a Eurodollar Rate Advance, the Administrative Agent determines (which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error) that adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the Adjusted LIBO Rate or the LIBO
Rate, as applicable (including because the LIBO Screen Rate is not available or published on a current basis), for such Interest Period: 

(i)      the Administrative Agent shall forthwith notify the Borrower and the
Lenders that the interest rate cannot be determined for such Eurodollar Rate Advances for such Interest Period, 

(ii)      each Eurodollar Rate Advance will automatically, on the last day of
the then existing Interest Period therefor, Convert into a Base Rate Advance, and 

(iii)      the obligation of the Lenders to make or Continue, or to Convert
Advances into, Eurodollar Rate Advances shall be suspended until the Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrower and the Lenders that the circumstances causing such suspension no longer exist. 

(c)      If, with respect to any Eurodollar Rate Advances, the Majority Lenders notify the
Administrative Agent that the Eurodollar Rate for any Interest Period for such Advances will not adequately reflect the cost to such Majority Lenders of making, funding or maintaining their respective Eurodollar Rate Advances for such Interest
Period, the Administrative Agent shall forthwith so notify the Borrower and the Lenders, whereupon: 

(i)      each Eurodollar Rate Advance will automatically, on the last day of
the then existing Interest Period therefor, Convert into a Base Rate Advance, and 

(ii)      the obligation of the Lenders to make or Continue, or to Convert
Advances into, Eurodollar Rate Advances shall be suspended until the Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrower and such Lenders that the circumstances causing such suspension no longer exist. 

(d)      If at any time the Administrative Agent determines (which determination shall be
conclusive absent manifest error) that (i) the circumstances set forth in clause (b) have arisen and such circumstances are unlikely to be temporary or (ii) the circumstances set forth in clause (b) have not arisen but either
(w) the supervisor for the administrator of the LIBO Screen Rate has made a public statement that the administrator of the LIBO Screen Rate is insolvent (and there is no successor administrator that will continue publication of the LIBO Screen
Rate), (x) the administrator of the LIBO Screen Rate has made a public statement identifying a specific date after which the LIBO Screen Rate will permanently or indefinitely cease to be published by it (and there is no successor administrator that
will continue publication of the LIBO Screen Rate), (y) the supervisor for the administrator of the LIBO Screen Rate has made a public statement identifying a specific date after which the LIBO Screen Rate will permanently or indefinitely cease to
be published or (z) the supervisor for the administrator of the LIBO Screen Rate or a Governmental Authority having jurisdiction over the Administrative Agent has made a public statement identifying a specific date after which the LIBO Screen
Rate may no longer be used for determining interest rates for loans, then the Administrative Agent and the Borrower shall endeavor to establish an alternate rate of interest to the LIBO Rate that gives due consideration to the then prevailing market
convention for determining a rate of interest for syndicated loans in the United States at such time, and shall enter into an amendment to this Agreement to reflect such alternate rate of interest and such other related changes to this Agreement as
may be applicable (but for the avoidance of doubt, such related changes shall not include a reduction of the Applicable Rate); provided that, if such alternate rate of interest as so determined would be less than zero, such rate shall be
deemed to be zero for the purposes of this Agreement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Section 8.01, such amendment shall become effective without any further action 

  
 20 








 
or consent of any other party to this Agreement so long as the Administrative Agent shall not have received, within five Business Days of the date notice of such alternate rate of interest is
provided to the Lenders, a written notice from the Majority Lenders stating that such Majority Lenders object to such amendment. Until an alternate rate of interest shall be determined in accordance with this clause (d) (but, in the case of the
circumstances described in clause (ii) of the first sentence of this Section 2.09(d), only to the extent the LIBO Screen Rate for such Interest Period is not available or published at such time on a current basis), (x) any request for
the Conversion of any Advance to, or Continuation of any Advance as, a Eurodollar Rate Advance shall be ineffective and (y) if any Notice of Borrowing requests a Eurodollar Rate Advance, such Advance shall be made as a Base Rate Advance. 

(e)    If the Borrower shall fail to select the duration of any ensuing Interest Period for any
outstanding Eurodollar Rate Advances in accordance with the provisions contained in the definition of “Interest Period” in Section 1.01, the Administrative Agent will forthwith so notify the Borrower and the Lenders and the Borrower
will automatically be deemed to have selected an Interest Period of one month therefor. 
 (f)    On
the date on which the aggregate unpaid principal amount of Eurodollar Rate Advances comprising any Borrowing shall be reduced, by payment or prepayment or otherwise, to less than $1,000,000, such Advances shall automatically Convert into Base Rate
Advances. 
 (g)    Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default,
(x) each Eurodollar Rate Advance shall automatically, on the last day of the then existing Interest Period therefor, Convert into a Base Rate Advance and (y) the obligation of the Lenders to make or Continue, or to Convert Advances into,
Eurodollar Rate Advances shall automatically be suspended until such Event of Default shall be cured or waived. 
 SECTION
2.10.    Voluntary Conversion and Continuation of Advances. 

(a)    Optional Conversion. The Borrower may on any Business Day, upon notice given to the
Administrative Agent not later than 12:00 noon (New York City time) on the third Business Day prior to the date of the proposed Conversion and subject to the provisions of Sections 2.09 and 2.13, Convert all or any portion of the
outstanding Advances of one Type comprising part of the same Borrowing into Advances of the other Type; provided that (i) any Conversion of Base Rate Advances into Eurodollar Rate Advances shall be in an amount not less than the minimum
amount specified in Section 2.01(a) and (ii) in the case of any such Conversion of a Eurodollar Rate Advance into a Base Rate Advance on a day other than the last day of an Interest Period therefor, the Borrower shall reimburse the Lenders
in respect thereof pursuant to Section 8.04(c). Each such notice of a Conversion shall, within the restrictions specified above, specify (x) the date of such Conversion, (y) the Advances to be Converted, and (z) if such
Conversion is into Eurodollar Rate Advances, the duration of the initial Interest Period for each such Advance. Each notice of Conversion shall be irrevocable and binding on the Borrower. 

(b)    Continuations. The Borrower may, on any Business Day, upon notice given to the
Administrative Agent not later than 12:00 noon (New York City time) on the third Business Day prior to the date of the proposed Continuation and subject to the provisions of Sections 2.09 and 2.13, Continue all or any portion of the
outstanding Eurodollar Rate Advances comprising part of the same Borrowing for one or more Interest Periods; provided that (i) Eurodollar Rate Advances so Continued and having the same Interest Period shall be in an amount not less than
the minimum amount specified in Section 2.01(a) and (ii) in the case of any such Continuation on a day other than the last day of an Interest Period therefor, the Borrower shall reimburse the Lenders in respect thereof pursuant to
Section 8.04(c). Each such notice of a Continuation shall, within the restrictions specified above, specify (x) the date of such Continuation, (y) the Eurodollar Rate Advances to be Continued and (y) the duration of the initial
Interest Period (or Interest 

  
 21 








 
Periods) for the Eurodollar Rate Advances subject to such Continuation. Each notice of Continuation shall be irrevocable and binding on the Borrower. 

SECTION 2.11.      Prepayments of Advances. The Borrower may, on notice given not later
than 12:00 noon (New York City time) on the second Business Day prior to the date of the proposed prepayment of Advances (in the case of Eurodollar Rate Advances) or given not later than 12:00 noon (New York City time) on the Business Day of the
proposed prepayment of Advances (in the case of Base Rate Advances), stating the proposed date and aggregate principal amount of the prepayment, and if such notice is given the Borrower shall, prepay, without penalty or premium, the outstanding
principal amounts of the Advances comprising part of the same Borrowing in whole or ratably in part, together with accrued interest to the date of such prepayment on the principal amount prepaid; provided, however, that (x) each
partial prepayment shall be in an aggregate principal amount not less than $5,000,000 or integral multiples of $1,000,000 in excess thereof and (y) in the case of any such prepayment of a Eurodollar Rate Advance on a day other than the last day
of an Interest Period therefor, the Borrower shall reimburse the Lenders in respect thereof pursuant to Section 8.04(c). The Borrower shall have no right to prepay the Advances except as provided in this Section 2.11 (or as required
pursuant to the other provisions of this Agreement). Each prepayment of a Borrowing shall be applied ratably to the Advances included in the prepaid Borrowing in such order of application as directed by the Borrower. Prepayments of Advances may not
be reborrowed. 
 SECTION 2.12.      Increased Costs. 

(a)      If, due to a Change in Law, there shall be any increase in the cost to any Person of
agreeing to make or making, funding or maintaining Advances or any Person shall be subjected to any reserve, special deposit, taxes, duties, levies, imposts, deductions, assessments (including any compulsory loan requirement, insurance charge or
other assessment), fees, charges, withholdings, liquidity or similar requirement, and any and all liabilities with respect to the foregoing, (other than Taxes addressed in Section 2.15, Other Taxes, and amounts excluded from “Taxes”
as defined in Section 2.15(a)) on its loans, loan principal, letters of credit, commitments, or other obligations, or its deposits, reserves, other liabilities or capital attributable thereto, then the Borrower shall from time to time, upon
demand by such Person (with a copy of such demand to the Administrative Agent), pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of such Person additional amounts sufficient to compensate such Person for such increased cost. A certificate as to the
amount of such increased cost, prepared in good faith and submitted to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent by such Person, shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error. 

(b)      If any Lender determines that compliance with any law or regulation or any guideline
or request from any central bank or other governmental authority (whether or not having the force of law) affects or would affect the amount of capital or liquidity required or expected to be maintained by such Lender or any corporation controlling
such Lender and that the amount of such capital or liquidity is increased by or based upon the existence of such Lender’s commitment to lend (or Continue or Convert any Advance) hereunder and other commitments of this type, then, upon demand by
such Lender (with a copy of such demand to the Administrative Agent), the Borrower shall immediately pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of such Lender, from time to time as specified by such Lender, additional amounts sufficient to
compensate such Lender or such corporation in the light of such circumstances, to the extent that such Lender reasonably determines such increase in capital or liquidity to be allocable to the existence of such Lender’s commitment to lend
hereunder. A certificate as to such amounts, prepared in good faith and submitted to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent by such Lender, shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error. 

  
 22 








 SECTION 2.13.      Illegality.
Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, if any Lender shall notify the Administrative Agent that the introduction of or any change in or in the interpretation of any law or regulation makes it unlawful, or any central bank or other
governmental authority asserts that it is unlawful, for such Lender or its Eurodollar Lending Office to perform its obligations hereunder to make or Continue Eurodollar Rate Advances or to fund or otherwise maintain Eurodollar Rate Advances
hereunder, (i) the obligation of such Lender to make or Continue, or to Convert Advances into, Eurodollar Rate Advances shall be suspended until the Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrower and the Lenders that the circumstances causing
such suspension no longer exist and (ii) each Eurodollar Rate Advance of such Lender shall convert into a Base Rate Advance at the end of the then current Interest Period for such Eurodollar Rate Advance. 

SECTION 2.14.      Payments and Computations. 

(a)      The Borrower shall make each payment hereunder without
set-off or counterclaim not later than 1:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the day when due in Dollars to the Administrative Agent at its address referred to in Section 8.02 in same day funds. The
Administrative Agent will promptly thereafter cause to be distributed like funds relating to the payment of principal or interest ratably (other than amounts payable pursuant to Section 2.02(b), 2.12, 2.15 or 8.04(c)) to the Lenders for the
account of their respective Applicable Lending Offices, and like funds relating to the payment of any other amount payable to any Lender to such Lender for the account of its Applicable Lending Office, in each case to be applied in accordance with
the terms of this Agreement. Upon its acceptance of an Assignment and Acceptance and recording of the information contained therein in the Register pursuant to Section 8.06(d), from and after the Closing Date specified in such Assignment and
Acceptance, the Administrative Agent shall make all payments hereunder in respect of the interest assigned thereby to the Lender assignee thereunder, and the parties to such Assignment and Acceptance shall make all appropriate adjustments in such
payments for periods prior to such Closing Date directly between themselves. 
 (b)      All
computations of interest based on the Prime Rate shall be made by the Administrative Agent on the basis of a year of 365 or 366 days, as the case may be, for the actual number of days (including the first day but excluding the last day)
occurring in the period for which such interest is payable. All computations of interest based on the Eurodollar Rate or the NYFRB Rate shall be made by the Administrative Agent on the basis of a year of 360 days, for the actual number of days
(including the first day but excluding the last day) occurring in the period for which such interest or fee is payable. Each determination by the Administrative Agent of an interest rate hereunder shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes,
absent manifest error. 
 (c)      Whenever any payment hereunder would be due on a day other
than a Business Day, such due date shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day, and any such extension of such due date shall in such case be included in the computation of payment of interest; provided, however, that if such
extension would cause payment of interest on or principal of Eurodollar Rate Advances to fall due in the next following calendar month, such payment shall be made on the next preceding Business Day. 

(d)      Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from the Borrower prior to
the date on which any payment is due to the Lenders hereunder that the Borrower will not make such payment in full, the Administrative Agent may assume that the Borrower has made such payment in full to the Administrative Agent on such date and the
Administrative Agent may, in reliance upon such assumption, cause to be distributed to each Lender on such due date an amount equal to the amount then due such Lender. If and to the extent that the Borrower shall not have so made such payment in
full to the Administrative Agent, each Lender shall repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such amount distributed to such Lender together with interest thereon, for each day from the date such amount


  
 23 








 
is distributed to such Lender until the date such Lender repays such amount to the Administrative Agent, at the NYFRB Rate. 

SECTION 2.15.      Taxes. 

(a)      Any and all payments by the Borrower hereunder or any other Loan Document shall be
made, in accordance with Section 2.14, free and clear of and without deduction for any and all present or future taxes, duties, levies, imposts, deductions, assessments, fees, charges or withholdings, and all interest, penalties, and other
liabilities with respect thereto, excluding, in the case of each Lender and the Administrative Agent, (i) taxes imposed on or measured by net income, and franchise taxes imposed on it, by the jurisdiction under the laws of which such
Lender or the Administrative Agent (as the case may be) is organized or any political subdivision thereof and, in the case of each Lender, taxes imposed on or measured by its net income, and franchise taxes imposed on it, by the jurisdiction of such
Lender’s Applicable Lending Office or any political subdivision thereof, and (ii) any withholding taxes imposed by FATCA (all such non-excluded taxes, duties, levies, imposts, deductions,
assessments, fees, charges, withholdings and liabilities being hereinafter referred to as “Taxes”). If any Taxes are required to be deducted from or in respect of any sum payable hereunder or any other Loan Document to any Lender or
the Administrative Agent, (i) the sum payable by the Borrower shall be increased as may be necessary so that after making all required deductions (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 2.15) such
Lender or the Administrative Agent (as the case may be) receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions been made, (ii) the Borrower shall make such deductions and (iii) the Borrower shall pay the full
amount deducted to the relevant taxation authority or other authority in accordance with applicable law. 

(b)      In addition, the Borrower agrees to pay any present or future stamp or documentary
taxes or any other excise or property taxes, charges or similar taxes or levies (including interest, penalties, and additions to tax related thereto) which arise from any payment made hereunder or from the execution, delivery or registration of, or
otherwise with respect to, this Agreement or any other Loan Document (hereinafter referred to as “Other Taxes”). 

(c)      The Borrower will indemnify each Lender and the Administrative Agent for the full
amount of Taxes or Other Taxes imposed on or with respect to any payment made by or on account of any obligation of the Borrower under any Loan Document (including, without limitation, any Taxes and Other Taxes imposed by any jurisdiction on amounts
payable under this Section 2.15) paid by such Lender or the Administrative Agent (as the case may be) and any penalties, interest, additions to tax related thereto, and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether
or not such Taxes or Other Taxes were correctly or legally asserted. This indemnification shall be made within thirty (30) days from the date such Lender or the Administrative Agent (as the case may be) makes written demand therefor. A
certificate as to the amount of such Taxes and Other Taxes, submitted to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent by such Lender, shall be conclusive and binding (as between the Borrower, the Lenders and the Administrative Agent) for all purposes,
absent manifest error. 
 (d)      Within thirty (30) days after the date of any payment
of taxes or related amounts imposed on or with respect to any payment made by or on account of any obligation of the Borrower under any Loan Document, the Borrower will furnish to the Administrative Agent, at its address referred to in
Section 8.02, the original or a certified copy of a receipt evidencing payment thereof or other proof of payment of such taxes or amounts reasonably satisfactory to the relevant Lender(s). If no such taxes or amounts are payable in respect of
any payment hereunder, upon the request of the Administrative Agent the Borrower will furnish to the Administrative Agent, at such address, a statement to such effect with respect to each jurisdiction designated by the Administrative Agent. 

  
 24 








 (e)      Each Lender organized under the laws of a
jurisdiction outside the United States, on or prior to the date of its execution and delivery of this Agreement (in the case of each Lender as of the date hereof) and on the date of the Assignment and Acceptance pursuant to which it becomes a Lender
(in the case of each other Lender) and from time to time thereafter if requested in writing by the Borrower or otherwise required under law (but, in each case, only so long as such Lender is or, at the time of request or legal requirement, remains
lawfully able to do so), shall provide the Borrower with Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN, W-8BEN-E or W-8ECI, as appropriate, or any successor form prescribed by the Internal Revenue Service, certifying, if applicable, that such Lender is entitled to benefits under an income tax treaty to which the United States is
a party which reduces the rate of withholding tax on payments of interest, certifying, if applicable, such Lender is eligible for the portfolio interest exemption (which shall also require a separate certificate to the effect that such Lender is not
a “bank” within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, a “10-percent shareholder” of the Borrower within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(B) of the Code, or a
“controlled foreign corporation” described in Section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code) or certifying, if applicable, that the income receivable pursuant to this Agreement is effectively connected with the conduct of a trade or business in
the United States. If the form provided by a Lender indicates a United States interest withholding tax rate in excess of zero under the law applicable at the time such Lender first becomes a party to this Agreement, withholding tax at such rate
shall be considered excluded from “Taxes” as defined in Section 2.15(a) (except to the extent such taxes were grossed up with respect to the Lender’s assignor immediately before such Lender became a party). Each Lender agrees
that if any form or certification it previously delivered expires or becomes obsolete or inaccurate in any respect, it shall update such form or certification or promptly notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent in writing of its legal
inability to do so. 
 (f)      For any period with respect to which a Lender has failed to
provide the Borrower with the appropriate form described in Section 2.15(e) (other than if such failure is due to a change in law occurring subsequent to the date on which a form originally was required to be provided or if such form otherwise
is not required under the first sentence of subsection (e) above), such Lender shall not be entitled to indemnification under Section 2.15(a) or (c) with respect to Taxes imposed by the United States (except to the extent such Taxes
were payable either to such Lender’s assignor immediately before such Lender became a party hereto or to such Lender immediately before it changed its lending office). 

(g)      Any Lender claiming any additional amounts payable pursuant to this Section 2.15
shall use reasonable efforts (consistent with its internal policy and legal and regulatory restrictions) to change the jurisdiction of its Applicable Lending Office(s) if the making of such a change would avoid the need for, or reduce the amount of,
any such additional amounts that may thereafter accrue and would not, in the reasonable judgment of such Lender, be otherwise disadvantageous to such Lender. 

(h)      Each Lender shall severally indemnify the Administrative Agent for any taxes, duties,
levies, imposts, deductions, assessments, fees, charges or withholdings, and any and all liabilities with respect to the foregoing (but, in the case of any Taxes or Other Taxes, only to the extent that the Borrower has not already indemnified the
Administrative Agent for such Taxes or Other Taxes and without limiting the obligation of the Borrower to do so) and any Taxes attributable to such Lender’s failure to comply with the provisions of Section 8.06(e) relating to the
maintenance of a Participant Register, in each case, attributable to such Lender that are paid or payable by the Administrative Agent in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with
respect thereto, whether or not such amounts were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. The indemnity under this Section 2.15(h) shall be paid within thirty (30) days after the Administrative
Agent delivers to the applicable Lender a certificate stating the amount so paid or payable by the Administrative Agent. Such certificate shall be conclusive of the amount so paid or payable absent manifest error. Each Lender hereby authorizes the
Administrative Agent to set off and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Lender under any Loan Document or otherwise payable by the 

  
 25 








 
Administrative Agent to the Lender from any other source against any amount due to the Administrative Agent under this paragraph (h). 

(i)      If a payment made to a Lender under this Agreement would be subject to
U.S. federal withholding tax imposed by FATCA if such Lender were to fail to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Section 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Code, as applicable), such Lender shall
deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, such documentation prescribed by applicable law (including as
prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Code) and such additional documentation reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent as may be necessary for the Borrower and the Administrative Agent to comply with their
obligations under FATCA, to determine that such Lender has or has not complied with such Lender’s obligations under FATCA and, as necessary, to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment. Solely for purposes of this
Section 2.15(i), “FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this Agreement. 

(j)      If any party determines, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith, that it has
received a refund of any amounts as to which it has been indemnified pursuant to this Section (including by the payment of additional amounts pursuant to this Section), it shall pay to the indemnifying party an amount equal to such refund (but only
to the extent of indemnity payments made under this Section with respect to the amounts giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses (including taxes)
of such indemnified party and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund). Such indemnifying party, upon the request of such indemnified party, shall repay to such indemnified
party the amount paid over pursuant to this paragraph (h) (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) in the event that such indemnified party is required to repay such refund to such Governmental
Authority. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this paragraph (j), in no event will the indemnified party be required to pay any amount to an indemnifying party pursuant to this paragraph (j) the payment of which would place the
indemnified party in a less favorable net after-tax position than the indemnified party would have been in if the amounts subject to indemnification and giving rise to such refund had not been deducted,
withheld or otherwise imposed and the indemnification payments or additional amounts with respect to such tax had never been paid. This paragraph shall not be construed to require any indemnified party to make available its tax returns (or any other
information relating to its taxes that it deems confidential) to the indemnifying party or any other Person. 
 SECTION
2.16.      Set-Off; Sharing of Payments, Etc. 

(a)      Without limiting any of the obligations of the Borrower or the rights of the Lenders
hereunder, if the Borrower shall fail to pay when due (whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise) any amount payable by it hereunder or under any Note each Lender may, without prior notice to the Borrower (which notice is expressly
waived by it to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law), set off and appropriate and apply against such amount any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final, in any currency, matured or unmatured) and other
obligations and liabilities at any time held or owing by such Lender or any branch or agency thereof to or for the credit or account of the Borrower. Each Lender shall promptly provide notice of such set-off
and application to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, provided that failure by such Lender to provide such notice shall not affect the validity of such set-off or application. 

(b)      If any Lender shall obtain any payment (whether voluntary, involuntary, through the
exercise of any right of set-off, or otherwise) on account of the Advances made by it (other than pursuant to Section 2.02(b), 2.12, 2.15 or 8.04(c)) in excess of its Ratable Share of payments on account
of the 

  
 26 








 
Advances obtained by all the Lenders, such Lender shall forthwith purchase from the other Lenders such participations in the Advances made by them or make such other adjustments as shall be
necessary to cause such purchasing Lender to share the excess payment ratably with each of them; provided, however, that if all or any portion of such excess payment is thereafter recovered from such purchasing Lender, such purchase
from each Lender shall be rescinded and such Lender shall repay to the purchasing Lender the purchase price to the extent of such recovery together with an amount equal to such Lender’s ratable share (according to the proportion of (i) the
amount of such Lender’s required repayment to (ii) the total amount so recovered from the purchasing Lender) of any interest or other amount paid or payable by the purchasing Lender in respect of the total amount so recovered. The Borrower
agrees that any Lender so purchasing a participation from another Lender pursuant to this Section 2.16 may, to the fullest extent permitted by law, exercise all its rights of payment (including the right of
set-off) with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were the direct creditor of the Borrower in the amount of such participation. 

SECTION 2.17.      Right to Replace a Lender. If (i) the Borrower is required to
make any additional payment pursuant to Section 2.12 or 2.15 to any Lender, (ii) any Lender’s obligation to make or Continue, or to Convert Advances into, Eurodollar Rate Advances shall be suspended pursuant to Section 2.13 or
(iii) if in connection with any proposed amendment, waiver or consent requiring the consent of “each Lender”, the consent of the Majority Lenders is obtained, but the consent of other necessary Lenders is not obtained (in each case,
such Lender being an “Affected Person”), the Borrower may elect, if such amounts continue to be charged or such suspension is still effective, to replace such Affected Person as a party to this Agreement; provided that, no
Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing at the time of such replacement; and provided further that, concurrently with such replacement, (i) another financial institution which is an Eligible Assignee and
is reasonably satisfactory to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent shall agree, as of such date, to purchase for cash the Advances of the Affected Person pursuant to an Assignment and Acceptance and to become a Lender for all purposes under
this Agreement and to assume all obligations (including all outstanding Advances) of the Affected Person to be terminated as of such date and to comply with the requirements of Section 8.06 applicable to assignments, and (ii) the Borrower
shall pay to such Affected Person in same day funds on the day of such replacement all accrued interest, accrued fees and other amounts then owing to such Affected Person by the Borrower hereunder to and including the date of termination, including
without limitation payments due such Affected Person under Section 2.12 and 2.15. Each party hereto agrees that (a) an assignment required pursuant to this paragraph may be effected pursuant to an Assignment and Acceptance executed by the
Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the assignee, and (b) the Lender required to make such assignment need not be a party thereto in order for such assignment to be effective and shall be deemed to have consented to an be bound by the terms
thereof; provided that, following the effectiveness of any such assignment, the other parties to such assignment agree to execute and deliver such documents necessary to evidence such assignment as reasonably requested by the applicable Lender,
provided that any such documents shall be without recourse to or warranty by the parties thereto. 
 SECTION
2.18.      Evidence of Indebtedness. 
 (a)      Each
Lender shall maintain in accordance with its usual practice an account or accounts evidencing the indebtedness of the Borrower to such Lender resulting from each Advance made by such Lender, including the amounts of principal and interest payable
and paid to such Lender from time to time hereunder. 
 (b)      The Administrative Agent
shall maintain accounts in which it shall record (i) the date, amount, Type, interest rate and duration of Interest Period (if applicable) of each Advance made hereunder, (ii) the amount of any principal or interest due and payable or to
become due and payable from the Borrower to each Lender hereunder and (iii) the amount of any sum received by the Administrative Agent hereunder for the account of the Lenders and each Lender’s share thereof. 

  
 27 








 (c)      The entries made in the accounts
maintained pursuant to clause (a) or (b) of this Section 2.18 shall be prima facie evidence of the existence and amounts of the obligations recorded therein; provided that the failure of any Lender or the Administrative
Agent to maintain such accounts or any error therein shall not in any manner affect the obligation of the Borrower to repay the Advances in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. In the event of any conflict between the accounts maintained by
the Lenders and the accounts maintained by the Administrative Agent, the records of the Administrative Agent shall control in the absence of manifest error. 

(d)      Any Lender may request that its Advances be evidenced by a promissory note. In such
event, the Borrower will promptly prepare, execute and deliver to such Lender a promissory note (a “Note”) payable to such Lender, in a form approved by the Administrative Agent, in a principal amount equal to the amount of such
Lender’s Commitment and otherwise duly completed. 
 SECTION 2.19.      Incremental
Term Loans. 
 (a)      The Borrower shall have the right at any time after the Closing
Date to request that additional term loans be made hereunder (each such tranche of additional term loans, an “Incremental Term Loan”) in accordance with the following provisions and subject to the following conditions: 

(i)      The Borrower shall give the Administrative Agent, which shall promptly
deliver a copy thereof to each of the Lenders, at least twenty (20) Business Days’ prior written notice (a “Notice of Incremental Term Loan”) of any such requested Incremental Term Loan specifying the aggregate amount of
such Incremental Term Loan (the “Requested Incremental Term Loan Amount”), which shall be at least $10,000,000, the requested date of such Incremental Term Loan (the “Requested Incremental Term Loan Date”) and the
date by which the Lenders wishing to participate in such Incremental Term Loan must commit to provide a portion of such Incremental Term Loan (the “Commitment Date”). Each Lender that is willing in its sole discretion to participate
in such requested Incremental Term Loan (each an “Incremental Term Loan Lender”) shall give written notice to the Administrative Agent on or prior to the Commitment Date of the amount of such Incremental Term Loan it is willing to
provide. 
 (ii)      Promptly following each Commitment Date, the
Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrower as to the amount, if any, the Lenders are willing to provide in respect of the requested Incremental Term Loan. In addition, the Borrower may extend offers to one or more Eligible Assignees, each of
which must be reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, to participate in any portion of the requested Incremental Term Loan; provided, however, that the amount of such Incremental Term Loan provided by each such Eligible
Assignee shall be in an amount of not less than $1,000,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof. Any such Eligible Assignee that agrees to provide all or a portion of an Incremental Term Loan pursuant hereto is herein called an
“Additional Lender”. 
 (iii)      Effective on the
Requested Incremental Term Loan Date, subject to the terms and conditions hereof, (x) the commitment of each Incremental Term Loan Lender in respect of the applicable Incremental Term Loan shall be an amount determined by the Administrative
Agent and the Borrower (but in no event greater than the amount of such Incremental Term Loan which such Lender is willing to provide), (y) each Additional Lender shall enter into an agreement in form and substance satisfactory to the Borrower
and the Administrative Agent pursuant to which it shall undertake, as of such Requested Incremental Term Loan Date, a commitment in respect of the applicable Incremental Term Loan in an amount determined by the Administrative Agent and the Borrower
(but in no event greater than the amount of such Incremental Term Loan which such Lender is willing to provide), and such Additional Lender shall thereupon be deemed to be a Lender 

  
 28 








 
for all purposes of this Agreement, and (z) each Incremental Term Loan Lender and each Additional Lender referenced in the immediately foregoing clauses (x) and (y) shall advance to the
Borrower on the Requested Incremental Term Loan Date a term loan in an amount equal to its commitment in respect of the applicable Incremental Term Loan as described above, and each such term loan shall be an Advance for all purposes under this
Agreement. Each Additional Lender may request a Note in accordance with Section 2.18(d). 

(iv)      The Incremental Term Loans (a) shall rank pari passu in
right of payment with the initial Advances made on the Closing Date, (b) shall not mature earlier than the Maturity Date (but may have amortization prior to such date) and (c) shall be treated substantially the same as (and in any event no
more favorably than) the initial Advances made on the Closing Date; provided that (i) the terms and conditions applicable to any tranche of Incremental Term Loans maturing after the Maturity Date may provide for material additional or
different financial or other covenants or prepayment requirements applicable only during periods after the Maturity Date and (ii) the Incremental Term Loans may be priced differently than the initial Advances made on the Closing Date.
Incremental Term Loans may be made hereunder pursuant to an amendment or restatement (an “Incremental Term Loan Amendment”) of this Agreement and, as appropriate, the other Loan Documents, executed by the Borrower, each Incremental
Term Loan Lender participating in such tranche of Incremental Term Loans, each Additional Lender participating in such tranche of Incremental Term Loans, if any, and the Administrative Agent. The Incremental Term Loan Amendment may, without the
consent of any other Lenders, effect such amendments to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as may be necessary or appropriate, in the reasonable opinion of the Administrative Agent, to effect the provisions of this Section 2.19. 

(v)      On and after each Requested Incremental Term Loan Date, the Ratable
Share of each Lender’s Advances shall be calculated after giving effect to each such Incremental Term Loan. 

(vi)      The Borrower may not exercise its rights under this Section 2.19
more than once in each successive annual period commencing on the Closing Date. 

(b)      Anything in this Section 2.19 to the contrary notwithstanding, no Incremental
Term Loan hereunder pursuant to this Section 2.19 shall be effective unless: 

(i)      as of the date of the relevant Notice of Increase and on the relevant
Requested Incremental Term Loan Date and after giving effect to such increase, (x) no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing and (y) the representations and warranties of the Borrower in Article 4 (subject
to updating in the case of Section 4.01(n)) shall be true and correct in all material respects as if made on and as of such date (unless expressly stated to relate to an earlier date, in which case such representations and warranties shall be
true and correct in all material respects as of such earlier date); 

(ii)      the Administrative Agent shall have received on or before the
relevant Requested Incremental Term Loan Date: (A) certified copies of resolutions of the Board of Directors of the Borrower approving the Incremental Term Loan and (B) an opinion of counsel for the Borrower reasonably satisfactory to the
Administrative Agent; 
 (iii)      on and as of the date of the relevant
Notice of Increase and on the relevant Requested Incremental Term Loan Date and after giving effect to such increase, the Moody’s Rating and the S&P Rating shall be at least equal to Baa3 and BBB-
respectively; and 

  
 29 








 after giving effect to any such increase the aggregate amount of the Advances made from and after
the Closing Date during the term of this Agreement shall not exceed $500,000,000. 
 SECTION
2.20.      Defaulting Lenders.       Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, if any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then, for so long as such Lender is a
Defaulting Lender, the outstanding Advances held by such Defaulting Lender shall not be included in determining whether the Majority Lenders have taken or may take any action hereunder (including any consent to any amendment, waiver or other
modification pursuant to Section 8.01); provided, that, except as otherwise provided in Section 8.01, this Section 2.20 shall not apply to the vote of a Defaulting Lender in the case of an amendment, waiver or other
modification requiring the consent of such Lender or each Lender directly affected thereby. 
 ARTICLE 3

attachments thereto, filed with the Internal Revenue Service for each Plan, has been provided to the Administrative Agent and fairly presents the funding status of each Plan as of the date of each such Annual Report. There has been no deterioration
in any single Plan’s funding status, or, collectively, all of the Plan’s funding status since the date of such Annual Report that could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. The Borrower has provided the Administrative
Agent with a list of all Plans and Multiemployer Plans and all available information with respect to direct, indirect, or potential withdrawal liability to any Multiemployer Plan of the Borrower or any member of a Controlled Group. 

(l)        The Borrower and each of its Material Subsidiaries is in compliance with
all laws, statutes, rules, regulations and orders binding on or applicable to the Borrower or such Material Subsidiary (including, without limitation, ERISA and all Environmental Laws) and all of their respective Property, subject to the possible
implications of the litigation and proceedings described in Schedule III and except to the extent failure to so comply could not (either individually or in the aggregate) reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse
Effect. 
 (m)        Each of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries has filed or caused
to be filed all tax returns which to the knowledge of the Borrower are required to be filed and has paid all taxes shown to be due and payable on said returns or on any assessments made against it or any of its Property and all other taxes, duties,
levies, imposts, deductions, assessments, fees or other charges or withholdings imposed on it 

  
 32 








 
or any of its Property by any Governmental Authority (other than those the amount or validity of which is currently being contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings and with respect to
which reserves in conformity with GAAP have been provided on the books of the Borrower or its Subsidiaries, as the case may be, or those the failure to pay which, in the aggregate, would not have a Material Adverse Effect); and (i) no material
tax liens have been filed and (ii) to the knowledge of the Borrower, no claims are being asserted with respect to any such taxes, fees or other charges that would, if assessed, have a Material Adverse Effect, other than as disclosed in
Schedule III. 
 (n)        As of the Closing Date,
Schedule IV contains an accurate list of all of the presently existing Subsidiaries and Material Subsidiaries, setting forth their respective jurisdictions of incorporation and the percentage of their respective outstanding
capital stock or other equity interests owned by the Borrower or other Subsidiaries and all of the issued and outstanding shares of capital stock or other equity interests of the Subsidiaries have been duly authorized and issued and are fully paid
and non-assessable. 
 (o)        The
Borrower has implemented and maintains in effect policies and procedures designed to ensure compliance by the Borrower, its Subsidiaries and their respective directors, officers and employees with all laws, rules and regulations (federal, state and
local), and the Borrower, its Subsidiaries and their respective officers and employees and to the knowledge of the Borrower its directors and agents, are in compliance with Anti-Corruption Laws and applicable Sanctions in all material respects. None
of (a) the Borrower, any Subsidiary or to the knowledge of the Borrower or such Subsidiary any of their respective directors, officers or employees, or (b) to the knowledge of the Borrower, any agent of the Borrower or any Subsidiary that
will act in any capacity in connection with or benefit from the loan facility established hereby, is a Sanctioned Person. No Borrowing, use of proceeds or other transactions contemplated by the Loan Documents will violate any Anti-Corruption Law or
applicable Sanctions. 
 (p)        The Borrower is not an EEA Financial
Institution.

Subsidiary to, do all things necessary (if applicable) to remain duly incorporated, validly existing and in good standing as a domestic corporation in its jurisdiction of incorporation and maintain all requisite authority to conduct its business in
each jurisdiction in which its business is conducted except where such failure to remain in good standing or to maintain such authority may not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. The Borrower will continue to engage in its
business substantially as conducted on the Closing Date, and, except where such failure may not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, will cause its Subsidiaries to continue to engage in their business substantially as conducted

connection therewith may be properly conducted at all times, except where the failure to so maintain, preserve, protect and repair could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. 

(i)        Inspection. The Borrower will, and will cause each Subsidiary to,
permit the Administrative Agent and the Lenders (coordinated through the Administrative Agent), at their sole cost and expense (except that if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Borrower will indemnify the Administrative Agent

 SECTION 7.01.        Authorization and
Action.     Each Lender hereby appoints and authorizes the Administrative Agent to take such action as administrative agent on its behalf and to exercise such powers under this Agreement as are delegated to the Administrative
Agent by the terms hereof, together with such powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. As to any matters not expressly provided for by this Agreement (including, without limitation, enforcement or collection of the Advances), the Administrative
Agent shall not be required to exercise any discretion or take any action, but shall be required to act or to refrain from acting (and shall be fully protected in so acting or refraining from acting) upon the instructions of the Majority Lenders,
and such instructions shall be binding upon all Lenders; provided, however, that the Administrative Agent shall not be required to take any action which exposes the Administrative Agent to personal liability or which is contrary to
this Agreement or applicable law. The Administrative Agent agrees to give to each Lender prompt notice of each notice given to it by the Borrower pursuant to the terms of this Agreement. 

SECTION 7.02.        Administrative Agent’s Reliance,
Etc.     Neither the Administrative Agent nor any of its directors, officers, agents or employees shall be liable to the Lenders for any action taken or omitted to be taken by it or them under or in connection with this
Agreement, except for its or their own gross negligence or willful misconduct. Without limitation of the generality of the foregoing, the Administrative Agent: (i) may consult with legal counsel (including counsel for the Borrower), independent
public accountants and other experts selected by it and shall not be liable to the Lenders for 

  
 41 








 
any action taken or omitted to be taken in good faith by it in accordance with the advice of such counsel, accountants or experts; (ii) makes no warranty or representation to any Lender and
shall not be responsible to any Lender for any statements, warranties or representations (whether written or oral) made in or in connection with this Agreement; (iii) shall not have any duty to ascertain or to inquire as to the performance or
observance of any of the terms, covenants or conditions of this Agreement on the part of the Borrower or to inspect the property (including the books and records) of the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries; (iv) shall not be responsible to any
Lender for the due execution, legality, validity, enforceability, genuineness, sufficiency or value of this Agreement or any other instrument or document furnished pursuant hereto; (v) shall incur no liability to the Lenders under or in respect
of this Agreement by acting upon any notice, consent, certificate or other instrument or writing (which may be by telecopier, telegram, cable, telex or other electronic communication) believed by it to be genuine and signed or sent by the proper
party or parties; (vi) shall not be subject to any fiduciary or other implied duties, regardless of whether a Default has occurred and is continuing; (vii) shall not have any duty to take any discretionary action or exercise any
discretionary powers, except discretionary rights and powers expressly contemplated by the Loan Documents that the Administrative Agent is required to exercise in writing as directed by the Majority Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the
Lenders as shall be necessary under the circumstances as provided in Section 8.01); and (vii) shall not have any duty to disclose, and shall not be liable for the failure to disclose, any information relating to the Borrower or any of its
Subsidiaries that is communicated to or obtained by the bank serving as Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates in any capacity. 

SECTION 7.03.        JPMorgan and Affiliates. With respect to its Commitment
and the Advances made by it, JPMorgan shall have the same rights and powers under this Agreement as any other Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not the Administrative Agent; and the term “Lender” or “Lenders”
shall, unless otherwise expressly indicated, include JPMorgan in its individual capacity. JPMorgan and its Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to, act as trustee under indentures of, and generally engage in any kind of business with, the
Borrower, any of its Subsidiaries and any Person who may do business with or own securities of the Borrower or any such Subsidiary, all as if JPMorgan were not the Administrative Agent and without any duty to account therefor to the Lenders. 

SECTION 7.04.        Lender Credit Decision. Each Lender acknowledges and
agrees that the extensions of credit made hereunder are commercial loans and not investments in a business enterprise or securities. Each Lender further represents that it is engaged in making, acquiring or holding commercial loans in the ordinary
course of its business and has, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other Lender and based on the financial statements referred to in Section 4.01 and such other documents and information as it has deemed
appropriate, made its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement as a Lender, and to make, acquire or hold Advances hereunder. Each Lender also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative
Agent or any other Lender and based on such documents and information (which may contain material, non-public information within the meaning of the United States securities laws concerning the Borrower and its
Affiliates) as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement and in deciding whether or to the extent to which it will continue as a lender or assign or otherwise
transfer its rights, interests and obligations hereunder. 
 SECTION
7.05.        Indemnification. The Lenders agree to indemnify the Administrative Agent (to the extent not reimbursed by the Borrower), ratably according to the respective amounts of their Commitments
(or, if the Commitments have expired or terminated, the amount of their outstanding Advances), from and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind
or nature whatsoever which may be imposed on, incurred by, or asserted against the Administrative Agent in any way relating to or arising out of this Agreement or any action taken or omitted by the Administrative Agent under this Agreement,
provided that no Lender shall be liable for any portion of such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, 

  
 42 








 
judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements found in a final-non-appealable judgment by a court of competent
jurisdiction to have resulted from the Administrative Agent’s gross negligence or willful misconduct. Without limiting the foregoing, each Lender agrees to reimburse the Administrative Agent promptly upon demand for its ratable share of any out-of-pocket expenses (including counsel fees) incurred by the Administrative Agent in connection with the preparation, execution, delivery, administration, modification,
amendment or enforcement (whether through negotiations, legal proceedings or otherwise) of, or legal advice in respect of rights or responsibilities under, this Agreement, to the extent that the Administrative Agent is not reimbursed for such
expenses by the Borrower. 
 SECTION 7.06.        Successor Administrative
Agent. The Administrative Agent may resign at any time by giving written notice thereof to the Lenders and the Borrower. Upon any such resignation, the Majority Lenders shall have the right to appoint a successor Administrative Agent that,
unless a Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and then be continuing, is reasonably acceptable to the Borrower. If no successor Administrative Agent shall have been so appointed by the Majority Lenders, and shall have accepted such
appointment, within thirty (30) days after the retiring Administrative Agent’s giving of notice of resignation, then the retiring Administrative Agent may, on behalf of the Lenders, appoint a successor Administrative Agent, which shall be
a commercial bank organized under the laws of the United States of America or of any State thereof and having total assets of at least $1,000,000,000. Upon the acceptance of any appointment as Administrative Agent hereunder by a successor
Administrative Agent, such successor Administrative Agent shall thereupon succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Administrative Agent, and the retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged
from its duties and obligations under this Agreement. After any retiring Administrative Agent’s resignation hereunder as Administrative Agent, the provisions of this Article 7 shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted
to be taken by it while it was Administrative Agent under this Agreement. 
 SECTION
7.07.        Arrangers. Each Arranger, in its capacity as such, shall have no obligation or responsibility hereunder and shall not become liable in any manner hereunder to any party hereto. 

SECTION 7.08.        Certain ERISA Matters. 

(a)        Each Lender (x) represents and warrants, as of the date such Person
became a Lender party hereto, to, and (y) covenants, from the date such Person became a Lender party hereto to the date such Person ceases being a Lender party hereto, for the benefit of, the Administrative Agent, each Arranger their respective

(iii)        (A) such Lender is an investment fund managed by a

be agreed in writing between the Administrative Agent, in its sole discretion, and such Lender.

(i)          none of the Administrative Agent, any Arranger

documents related to hereto or thereto), 
 (ii)         the

WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS, IMPLIED OR STATUTORY, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, ANY WARRANTY OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, NON-INFRINGEMENT OF THIRD PARTY RIGHTS OR FREEDOM FROM
VIRUSES OR OTHER CODE DEFECTS, IS MADE BY THE AGENT PARTIES IN CONNECTION WITH THE COMMUNICATIONS OR THE PLATFORM. IN NO EVENT SHALL THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT OR ANY OF ITS AFFILIATES OR ANY OF THEIR RESPECTIVE OFFICERS, DIRECTORS, EMPLOYEES, AGENTS,

INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, LOSSES OR EXPENSES (WHETHER IN TORT, CONTRACT OR OTHERWISE) ARISING OUT OF THE BORROWER’S OR THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT’S TRANSMISSION OF COMMUNICATIONS THROUGH THE INTERNET, EXCEPT TO THE EXTENT THE
LIABILITY OF ANY AGENT PARTY IS FOUND IN A FINAL NON-APPEALABLE JUDGMENT BY A COURT OF COMPETENT JURISDICTION TO HAVE RESULTED PRIMARILY FROM SUCH AGENT PARTY’S GROSS NEGLIGENCE OR WILLFUL MISCONDUCT.

 (d)        Each Lender agrees that notice to it (as provided in the next
sentence) specifying that any Communications have been posted to the Platform shall constitute effective delivery of such Communications to such Lender for purposes hereof. Each Lender agrees (i) to provide to the Administrative Agent in
writing (including by electronic communication), promptly after the date of this Agreement, an e-mail address to which the foregoing notice may be sent by electronic transmission and (ii) that the

Lender to give any notice or other communication pursuant hereto in any other manner specified herein. 
 SECTION
8.03.        No Waiver; Remedies. No failure on the part of any Lender or the Administrative Agent to exercise, and no delay in exercising, and no course of dealing with respect to, any right hereunder
shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right 

  
 47 








 
preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right. The remedies herein provided are cumulative and not exclusive of any remedies provided by law. 

SECTION 8.04.        Costs, Expenses and Indemnification. 

(a)        The Borrower agrees to pay and reimburse on demand (i) all reasonable
costs and expenses of the Administrative Agent and each Arranger in connection with the preparation, execution, delivery, administration, modification and amendment of this Agreement and the other documents to be delivered hereunder, including,
without limitation, the reasonable and documented fees and out-of-pocket expenses of counsel, but limited to the reasonable and documented fees and out-of-pocket expenses of counsel for the Administrative Agent with respect thereto and with respect to advising the Administrative Agent as to its rights and responsibilities
under this Agreement and (ii) all costs and expenses, if any (including the reasonable and documented fees and out-of-pocket expenses of (x) one counsel to the
Administrative Agent and each of the Lenders taken as a whole, and, if reasonably necessary, a single specialty or local counsel to the Administrative Agent and each of the Lenders taken as a whole; provided that in the case of an actual or
perceived conflict of interest with respect to any of the foregoing counsel, one additional counsel to all affected Lenders similarly situated and taken as a whole), incurred by the Administrative Agent or any Lender in connection with the
enforcement (whether through negotiations, legal proceedings or otherwise) of this Agreement and the other documents to be delivered hereunder, including, without limitation, reasonable counsel fees and expenses in connection with the enforcement of
rights under this Section 8.04(a). Such reasonable fees and out-of-pocket expenses shall be reimbursed by the Borrower upon presentation to the Borrower of a
statement of account, regardless of whether this Agreement is executed and delivered by the parties hereto or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement are consummated. 

(b)        (i) The Borrower hereby agrees to indemnify the Administrative Agent, each
Arranger, each Lender and each of their respective Affiliates and their respective officers, directors, employees, agents, advisors and representatives (each, an “Indemnified Party”) from and against any and all direct claims,

in connection with or relating to any investigation, litigation or proceeding or the preparation of any defense with respect thereto arising out of or in connection with or relating to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby or
thereby or any use made or proposed to be made with the proceeds of the Advances, whether or not such investigation, litigation or proceeding is brought by the Borrower, any of its shareholders or creditors, an Indemnified Party or any other Person,
or an Indemnified Party is otherwise a party thereto, and whether or not any of the conditions precedent set forth in Article 3 are satisfied or the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement are consummated, except to the extent such
direct claim, damage, loss, liability or expense (x) is found in a final, non-appealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from such Indemnified Party’s gross negligence
or willful misconduct, or (y) results from a claim brought by the Borrower against an Indemnified Party for breach in bad faith, or a material breach, of such Indemnified Party’s express obligations hereunder or (z) arises out of, or
result from, any investigation, litigation or proceeding that does not involve an act or omission by the Borrower or any of the Borrower’s Affiliates and that is brought by an Indemnified Party against any other Indemnified Party (other than in
its capacity as the Administrative Agent, an Arranger, a Co-Syndication Agent or any other similar role with respect to the loan facility evidenced by this Agreement). 

(ii)        The Borrower hereby further agrees that (i) no
Indemnified Party shall have any liability to the Borrower for or in connection with or relating to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby or any use made or proposed to be made with the proceeds of the Advances, except to
the extent such liability is found in a final, non-appealable 

  
 48 








 
judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from such Indemnified Party’s gross negligence or willful misconduct and (ii) the Borrower will not assert any claim
against the Administrative Agent or any Lender, any of their respective Affiliates, or any of their respective directors, officers, employees, attorneys or agents, on any theory of liability, for consequential, indirect, special or punitive damages
arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the actual or proposed use of any Advance. 

(c)        If any payment of principal of, or Conversion or Continuation of, any
Eurodollar Rate Advance of a Lender is made on a day other than the last day of an Interest Period for such Advance as a result of any optional or mandatory prepayment, acceleration of the maturity of the Advances pursuant to Section 6.01 or
for any other reason, the Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of such Lender any amounts required to compensate such Lender for any additional losses, costs or expenses (other than loss of profit) which it may reasonably
incur as a result of such payment, Continuation or Conversion and the liquidation or reemployment of deposits or other funds acquired by such Lender to fund or maintain such Advance. A certificate as to the amount of such losses, costs and expenses,
submitted to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent by such Lender, shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error. 

SECTION 8.05.        Binding Effect. This Agreement shall be binding upon and
inure to the benefit of the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and each Lender and their respective successors and permitted assigns, provided that the Borrower shall not have the right to assign its rights hereunder or any interest herein
without the prior written consent of the Lenders. 
 SECTION
8.06.        Assignments and Participations. 

(a)        Each Lender may, with notice to and the consent of the Administrative Agent
and, unless an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Borrower (provided that the Borrower shall be deemed to have consented to any such assignment unless it shall object thereto by written notice to the Administrative
Agent within five (5) Business Days after having received notice thereof) (such consents not to be unreasonably withheld), assign to one or more banks or other entities all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement
(including, without limitation, all or a portion of its Commitment and the Advances owing to it); provided that: 

(i)         each such assignment shall be of a constant, and not
a varying, percentage of all rights and obligations of the assigning Lender under this Agreement, 

(ii)        except in the case of an assignment by a Lender to one of
its Affiliates or to another Lender, the amount of the Commitment of the assigning Lender being assigned pursuant to each such assignment (determined as of the date of the Assignment and Acceptance with respect to such assignment) shall in no event
(unless the Borrower and the Administrative Agent otherwise agree) be less than the lesser of (x) such Lender’s Commitment hereunder and (y) $1,000,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof, 

(iii)       each such assignment shall be to an Eligible Assignee, 

(iv)       the parties to each such assignment shall execute and deliver
to the Administrative Agent, for its acceptance and recording in the Register, an Assignment and Acceptance, and 

(v)        the parties to each such assignment (other than the
Borrower) shall deliver to the Administrative Agent a processing and recordation fee of $3,500. 

  
 49 








 Upon such execution, delivery, acceptance and recording, from and after the Closing Date
specified in each Assignment and Acceptance, (x) the assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto and, to the extent that rights and obligations hereunder have been assigned to it pursuant to such Assignment and Acceptance, have the rights and
obligations of a Lender hereunder and (y) the Lender assignor thereunder shall, to the extent that rights and obligations hereunder have been assigned by it pursuant to such Assignment and Acceptance, relinquish its rights and be released from
its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Acceptance covering all or the remaining portion of an assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto).

 (b)        By executing and delivering an Assignment and Acceptance, the Lender
assignor thereunder and the assignee thereunder confirm to and agree with each other and the other parties hereto as follows: (i) other than as provided in such Assignment and Acceptance, such assigning Lender makes no representation or
warranty and assumes no responsibility with respect to any statements, warranties or representations made in or in connection with this Agreement or the execution, legality, validity, enforceability, genuineness, sufficiency or value of this
Agreement or any other instrument or document furnished pursuant hereto; (ii) such assigning Lender makes no representation or warranty and assumes no responsibility with respect to the financial condition of the Borrower or the performance or
observance by the Borrower of any of its obligations under this Agreement or any other instrument or document furnished pursuant hereto; (iii) such assignee confirms that it has received a copy of this Agreement, together with copies of the
financial statements referred to in Section 4.01 and such other documents and information as it has deemed appropriate to make its own credit analysis and decision to enter into such Assignment and Acceptance; (iv) such assignee will,
independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent, such assigning Lender or any other Lender and based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit decisions in taking or
not taking action under this Agreement; (v) such assignee confirms that it is an Eligible Assignee; (vi) such assignee appoints and authorizes the Administrative Agent to take such action as administrative agent on its behalf and to
exercise such powers under this Agreement as are delegated to the Administrative Agent by the terms hereof, together with such powers as are reasonably incidental thereto; and (vii) such assignee agrees that it will perform in accordance with
their terms all of the obligations which by the terms of this Agreement are required to be performed by it as a Lender. 

(c)        Upon its receipt of an Assignment and Acceptance executed by an assigning
Lender and an assignee representing that it is an Eligible Assignee, the Administrative Agent shall, if such Assignment and Acceptance has been completed (and the Borrower and the Administrative Agent shall have consented to the relevant assignment)
and is in substantially the form of Exhibit B hereto, (i) accept such Assignment and Acceptance, (ii) record the information contained therein in the Register and (iii) give prompt notice thereof to the
Borrower. 
 (d)        The Administrative Agent, acting for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the Borrower, shall maintain at its address referred to in Section 8.02 a copy of each Assignment and Acceptance delivered to and accepted by it and a register for the recordation of the
names and addresses of each of the Lenders and, with respect to Lenders, the Commitment of, and principal amount (and stated interest) of the Advances owing to, each such Lender from time to time (the “Register”). The entries in the
Register shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error, and the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register as a Lender hereunder for the purposes of
this Agreement. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrower or any Lender at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice. 

(e)        Each Lender may sell participations to one or more Persons (other than any
Ineligible Institution) in or to all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including, without limitation, all or a portion of its Commitment and the Advances owing to it); provided, however,


  
 50 








 
that (i) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement (including, without limitation, its Commitment to the Borrower hereunder) shall remain unchanged, (ii) such Lender shall
remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations, (iii) the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the other Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with
such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, (iv) in any proceeding under the Federal Bankruptcy Code in respect of the Borrower, such Lender shall remain and be, to the fullest extent permitted by law, the sole
representative with respect to the rights and obligations held in the name of such Lender (whether such rights or obligations are for such Lender’s own account or for the account of any participant), (v) no participant under any such
participation agreement shall have any right to approve any amendment or waiver of any provision of this Agreement, or to consent to any departure by the Borrower therefrom, except to the extent that any such amendment, waiver or consent would
(x) reduce the principal of, or interest on, the Notes, in each case to the extent the same are subject to such participation, or (y) postpone any date fixed for the payment of principal of, or interest on, the Advances, in each case to
the extent the same are subject to such participation and (vi) each participant shall be entitled to the benefits of, and subject to the limitations of, Sections 2.12 and 2.15 to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its
interest by assignment, provided that (A) such participant agrees to be subject to the provisions of Section 2.15(g) and Section 2.17 as if it were an assignee under paragraph (b) of this Section and (B) no
participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 2.15 unless such participant complies with Section 2.15(e) as if it were a Lender (it being understood that the documentation required thereunder shall be delivered to the
participating Lender). Each Lender that sells a participation agrees, at the Borrower’s request and expense, to use reasonable efforts to cooperate with the Borrower to effectuate the provisions of Section 2.15(g) with respect to any
participant. Each Lender that sells a participation shall, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the Borrower, maintain a register on which it enters the name and address of each
participant and the principal amounts (and stated interest) of each participant’s interest in the obligations under this Agreement (the “Participant Register”); provided that no Lender shall have any obligation to
disclose all or any portion of the Participant Register to any Person (including the identity of any participant or any information relating to a participant’s interest in the obligations under this Agreement) except to the extent that such
disclosure is necessary to establish that such interest is in registered form under United States Treasury Regulations Section 5f.103-1(c) and Proposed Treasury Regulations
1.163-5(b) (or any amended or successor version). The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and such Lender shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the
Participant Register as the owner of such participation for all purposes of this Agreement notwithstanding any notice to the contrary. 

(f)        Any Lender may, in connection with any permitted assignment or
participation or proposed assignment or participation pursuant to this Section 8.06 and subject to the provisions of Section 8.12, disclose to the assignee or participant or proposed assignee or participant any information relating to the
Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries or Affiliates furnished to such Lender by or on behalf of the Borrower. 

(g)        Notwithstanding any other provision set forth in this Agreement, any Lender
may at any time, without the consent of the Administrative Agent or the Borrower, create a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement (including, without limitation, the Advances owing to it) in favor of any Federal
Reserve Bank in accordance with Regulation A of the Federal Reserve Board. 

(h)        Notwithstanding any other provision set forth in this Agreement, any Lender
may at any time, without the consent of the Administrative Agent or the Borrower (but with notice to the Administrative Agent and the Borrower), assign to an Affiliate of such Lender all or any portion of its rights (but not its obligations) under
this Agreement. 
 SECTION 8.07.        Governing Law; Submission to
Jurisdiction. This Agreement shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the law of the State of New York. The Borrower hereby 

  
 51 








 
submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York and of any New York state court, in each case sitting in the Borough of Manhattan,
for the purposes of all legal proceedings arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby. The Borrower hereby irrevocably appoints CT Corporation System (the “Process Agent”), with an office on
the date hereof at 111 8th Avenue, 13th Floor, New York, New York 10011, as its agent and true and lawful attorney-in-fact in its name, place and stead to accept on behalf of the Borrower and its Property service of the copies of the summons and complaint and any other process
which may be served in any such legal proceedings brought in any such court, and the Borrower agrees that the failure of the Process Agent to give any notice of any such service of process to the Borrower shall not impair or affect the validity of
such service or, to the extent permitted by applicable law, the enforcement of any judgment based thereon. The Borrower irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, any objection that it may now or hereafter have to the
laying of the venue of any such proceeding brought in such a court and any claim that any such proceeding brought in such a court has been brought in an inconvenient forum. 

SECTION 8.08.        Severability. In case any provision in this Agreement
shall be held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, such provision shall be severable from the rest of this Agreement, and the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby.

 SECTION 8.09.        Execution in Counterparts; Electronic
Execution.  This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts and by different parties hereto in separate counterparts, each of which when so executed shall be deemed to be an original and all of which taken together shall
constitute one and the same agreement. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of this Agreement by telecopy, e-mailed .pdf or any other electronic means that reproduces an image of the actual
executed signature page shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Agreement. The words “execution,” “signed,” “signature,” “delivery,” and words of like import in or relating to
any document to be signed in connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby shall be deemed to include Electronic Signatures, deliveries or the keeping of records in electronic form, each of which shall be of the same legal
effect, validity or enforceability as a manually executed signature, physical delivery thereof or the use of a paper-based recordkeeping system, as the case may be, to the extent and as provided for in any applicable law, including the Federal
Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act, the New York State Electronic Signatures and Records Act, or any other similar state laws based on the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act; provided that nothing herein shall require
the Administrative Agent to accept electronic signatures in any form or format without its prior written consent. 
 SECTION
8.10.        Survival.    The obligations of the Borrower under Sections 2.02(b), 2.12, 2.15 and 8.04, and the obligations of the Lenders under Section 7.05, shall survive
the repayment of the Advances and the termination of the Commitments. In addition, each representation and warranty made, or deemed to be made by any Notice of Borrowing, herein or pursuant hereto shall survive the making of such representation and
warranty, and no Lender shall be deemed to have waived, by reason of making any Advance, any Default or Event of Default that may arise by reason of such representation or warranty proving to have been false or misleading. 

SECTION 8.11.        Waiver of Jury Trial.    EACH OF THE
BORROWER, THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT AND THE LENDERS HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY AND ALL RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE
TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY. 
 SECTION
8.12.        Confidentiality.  Each Lender agrees to hold any Information which it may receive from the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries or Affiliates pursuant to this Agreement in 

  
 52 








 
confidence and for use in connection with this Agreement, including without limitation for use in connection with its rights and remedies hereunder, except for disclosure (a) to other
Lenders and their respective Affiliates, (b) to legal counsel, accountants, and other professional advisors to such Lender, (c) to regulatory officials, (d) as requested pursuant to or as required by law, regulation, or legal process,
(e) in connection with any legal proceeding to which such Lender is a party, (f) to a proposed assignee or participant permitted under Section 8.06 which shall have agreed in writing to keep such disclosed confidential information
confidential in accordance with this Section and (g) on a confidential basis to (1) any rating agency in connection with rating the Borrower or its Subsidiaries or the credit facilities provided for herein or (2) the CUSIP Service
Bureau or any similar agency in connection with the issuance and monitoring of identification numbers with respect to the credit facilities provided for herein. For the purposes of this Section, “Information” means all information
received from the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries or Affiliates relating to the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries or Affiliates or their respective businesses, other than any such information that is available to the Administrative Agent or
any Lender on a non-confidential basis prior to disclosure by the Borrower and other than information pertaining to this Agreement routinely provided by arrangers to data service providers, including league
table providers, that serve the lending industry. Any Person required to maintain the confidentiality of Information as provided in this Section shall be considered to have complied with its obligation to do so if such Person has exercised the
same degree of care to maintain the confidentiality of such Information as such Person would accord to its own confidential information. 

EACH LENDER ACKNOWLEDGES THAT INFORMATION AS DEFINED IN THE IMMEDIATELY PRECEDING PARAGRAPH FURNISHED TO IT PURSUANT TO
THIS AGREEMENT MAY INCLUDE MATERIAL NON-PUBLIC INFORMATION CONCERNING THE BORROWER AND ITS AFFILIATES OR THEIR RESPECTIVE SECURITIES, AND CONFIRMS THAT IT HAS DEVELOPED COMPLIANCE PROCEDURES REGARDING THE USE
OF MATERIAL NON-PUBLIC INFORMATION AND THAT IT WILL HANDLE SUCH MATERIAL NON-PUBLIC INFORMATION IN ACCORDANCE WITH THOSE PROCEDURES AND APPLICABLE LAW, INCLUDING FEDERAL
AND STATE SECURITIES LAWS. 
 ALL INFORMATION, INCLUDING REQUESTS FOR WAIVERS AND AMENDMENTS, FURNISHED BY THE BORROWER OR THE
ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT PURSUANT TO, OR IN THE COURSE OF ADMINISTERING, THIS AGREEMENT WILL BE SYNDICATE-LEVEL INFORMATION, WHICH MAY CONTAIN MATERIAL NON-PUBLIC INFORMATION ABOUT THE BORROWER AND ITS AFFILIATES
OR THEIR RESPECTIVE SECURITIES. ACCORDINGLY, EACH LENDER REPRESENTS TO THE BORROWER AND THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT THAT IT HAS IDENTIFIED IN ITS ADMINISTRATIVE QUESTIONNAIRE A CREDIT CONTACT WHO MAY RECEIVE INFORMATION THAT MAY CONTAIN MATERIAL NON-PUBLIC INFORMATION IN ACCORDANCE WITH ITS COMPLIANCE PROCEDURES AND APPLICABLE LAW. 

SECTION 8.13.        Nonliability of Lenders; No Advisory or Fiduciary
Responsibility. The Borrower acknowledges and agrees, and acknowledges its Subsidiaries’ understanding, that no Credit Party will have any obligations except those obligations expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents and
each Credit Party is acting solely in the capacity of an arm’s length contractual counterparty to the Borrower with respect to the Loan Documents and the transaction contemplated therein and not as a financial advisor or a fiduciary to, or an
agent of, the Borrower or any other person. The Borrower agrees that it will not assert any claim against any Credit Party based on an alleged breach of fiduciary duty by such Credit Party in connection with this Agreement and the transactions
contemplated hereby. Additionally, the Borrower acknowledges and agrees that no Credit Party is advising the Borrower as to any legal, tax, investment, accounting, regulatory or any other matters in any jurisdiction. The Borrower shall consult with
its own advisors concerning such matters and shall be responsible for making its own 

  
 53 








 
independent investigation and appraisal of the transactions contemplated hereby, and the Credit Parties shall have no responsibility or liability to the Borrower with respect thereto. 

The Borrower further acknowledges and agrees, and acknowledges its Subsidiaries’ understanding, that each Credit Party is
a full service securities or banking firm engaged in securities trading and brokerage activities as well as providing investment banking and other financial services. In the ordinary course of business, any Credit Party may provide investment
banking and other financial services to, and/or acquire, hold or sell, for its own accounts and the accounts of customers, equity, debt and other securities and financial instruments (including bank loans and other obligations) of, the Borrower, its
Subsidiaries and other companies with which the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries may have commercial or other relationships. With respect to any securities and/or financial instruments so held by any Credit Party or any of its customers, all
rights in respect of such securities and financial instruments, including any voting rights, will be exercised by the holder of the rights, in its sole discretion. 

In addition, the Borrower acknowledges and agrees, and acknowledges its Subsidiaries’ understanding, that each Credit
Party and its affiliates may be providing debt financing, equity capital or other services (including financial advisory services) to other companies in respect of which the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries may have conflicting interests
regarding the transactions described herein and otherwise. No Credit Party will use confidential information obtained from the Borrower by virtue of the transactions contemplated by the Loan Documents or its other relationships with the Borrower in
connection with the performance by such Credit Party of services for other companies, and no Credit Party will furnish any such information to other companies. The Borrower also acknowledges that no Credit Party has any obligation to use in
connection with the transactions contemplated by the Loan Documents, or to furnish to the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, confidential information obtained from other companies. 

SECTION 8.14.        USA PATRIOT Act.  Each Lender hereby notifies
the Borrower that pursuant to the requirements of the USA Patriot Act (Title III of Pub. L. 107-56 (signed into law October 26, 2001)) (the “Patriot Act”), it is required to obtain,
verify and record information that identifies the Borrower, which information includes the name and address of the Borrower and other information that will allow such Lender to identify the Borrower in accordance with the Patriot Act. 

SECTION 8.15.        Interest Rate
Limitation.    Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if at any time the interest rate applicable to any Advance, together with all fees, charges and other amounts which are treated as interest on such Advance under
applicable law (collectively the “Charges”), shall exceed the maximum lawful rate (the “Maximum Rate”) which may be contracted for, charged, taken, received or reserved by the Lender holding such Advance in
accordance with applicable law, the rate of interest payable in respect of such Advance hereunder, together with all Charges payable in respect thereof, shall be limited to the Maximum Rate and, to the extent lawful, the interest and Charges that
would have been payable in respect of such Advance but were not payable as a result of the operation of this Section shall be cumulated and the interest and Charges payable to such Lender in respect of other Advances or periods shall be increased
(but not above the Maximum Rate therefor) until such cumulated amount, together with interest thereon at the NYFRB Rate to the date of repayment, shall have been received by such Lender. 

SECTION 8.16.        Acknowledgement and Consent to
Bail-In of EEA Financial Institutions.   Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in any Loan Document or in any other agreement, arrangement or understanding among any such parties, each party
hereto acknowledges that any liability of any EEA Financial Institution arising under any Loan Document may be subject to the Write-Down and Conversion Powers of an EEA Resolution Authority and agrees and consents to, and acknowledges and agrees to
be bound by: 

  
 54 








 (A)        the application of any
Write-Down and Conversion Powers by an EEA Resolution Authority to any such liabilities arising hereunder which may be payable to it by any party hereto that is an EEA Financial Institution; and 

(B)        the effects of any Bail-In Action
on any such liability, including, if applicable: 
 (i)        a
reduction in full or in part or cancellation of any such liability; 

(ii)        a conversion of all, or a portion of, such liability into
shares or other instruments of ownership in such EEA Financial Institution, its parent entity, or a bridge institution that may be issued to it or otherwise conferred on it, and that such shares or other instruments of ownership will be accepted by
it in lieu of any rights with respect to any such liability under this Agreement or any other Loan Document; or 

(iii)        the variation of the terms of such liability in
connection with the exercise of the Write-Down and Conversion Powers of any EEA Resolution Authority.
